Breakfast on the sunlit patio at La Colombe d'Or

So the sun was rising, flooding the patio with the golden glow of the morning. The Devil Dog is lucky enough to be married to the brilliant photographer Alison Reynolds, whose work has graced many of my newspaper feature articles, and who more importantly is the brilliant zenith at the center of my life and the glowing joy at the heart of the essense of beauty, a fiery partner in life whose passion burns as brilliantly today as it did 20 years ago when we met or 14 yearsago when we were married. There is no more beautiful moment than the one you have shared in the brilliance of the morning sun in the south of France. Here is that moment.
